Cultivating Emotional Intelligence
Rowman & Littlefield (Verlag)
978-1-4758-6300-0 (ISBN)
As humans, we desire connection with others. And while most connections remain surface level, this book investigates how teachers can make a deeper connection with students for the purpose of growing emotional intelligence and teaching positive social skills. If educators are going to do so, it will be necessary to reframe traditional school practices that focus on promoting positive behaviors through a discipline system based upon consequences that fail to address the behavior in a redemptive manner.
Dr. Michael G. Hylen currently serves as the coordinator of doctoral studies and associate professor of education at Southern Wesleyan University. Prior to joining the higher education ranks, he enjoyed a 25-year career in K-12 education where his most extensive work was as an alternative high school principal for students who struggled in traditional school settings.
